Files You Need

You are voiding the Samsung warranty when you choose to root the SCH-I605 device. You need to head over to the Sam Mobile website and find the stock ROM for the model number and the region you are living. Flash that stock ROM for the SCH-I605 using the same Odin flashing tool you are using in this guide if you ever want the warranty working again. It will unroot your Note 2 device.

Rooting the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 SCH-I605

Download the rooting file from the files section above and have it on the desktop of your computer.

Boot the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 SCH-I605 in download mode and then connect it to the computer with the USB cable.

Wait for a few seconds and then check out the Odin app for a green ID: COM port and the “added” message from the message box. You will need to install the universal Windows ADB driver if you do not see your device connected.

Click the AP button and upload the rooting file from the desktop to the SCH-I605 device.

Do not change any of the default settings you can see from the Odin user-interface.

Click the Start button and the Odin application will now flash the rooting exploit on your device.

Wait for the pass message to appear from the message box in the Odin application.

Look over to the display of your Samsung Galaxy Note 2 and check for when it says it is restoring the stock recovery, cleaning up and then going to reboot in ten seconds. It will now reboot to recovery mode. It must boot into recovery mode for the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 device to be rooted. Any Note 2 that does not make it in recovery mode must be booted to recovery mode manually using the hardware button combination for that on your device.
